Hi, I am 37 +4 weeks and know it is not long to go but these days are goijgnso slow and I am so so uncomfortable, tired and emotional!
I am on the birthing ball at every opporunity, going for long walks in the day, squatting and drinking rasberry leaf tea. But, he still has not dropped :(
Advice or just someone letting me know I am not an awful person for just wanting him out NOW, would be much appreciated!

If you are feeling like this he will probably be here soon! Good luck my dear, I was feeling like that at 37 weeks too, don't feel bad about it!

Thanks - I hope so. The lack of sleep and tight stomach is making me so irritable and sad all at the same time.

The last few weeks are hard work. I made it to 40+6 and I was so ready! Be kind to yourself and rest when you can!

Im 40+3 and feeling fed up too! Just given up on trying to sleep as I just feel so restless and could stand lying awake in bed any longer!

I had my baby last week at 40+5 , the best thing I did was mentally tell myself they wouldn't be here until I was 42 weeks then I wasn't disappointed when they didn't come earlier. And just remember you may think it's bad now but it's nothing compared to the sleep deprivation that's coming !!!

36+2 here and I feel exactly the same!

I dread night time because I cant get comfortable at all, its painful to lie down and when I eventually get comfortable I'm up needing the toilet which takes 14325235 hours to get out of bed as does just turning over without feeling like my pelvis is going to split in half.

I'm very much looking forward to not having to share my body anymore!

So good to know it is not just me feeling this way- I always thought pregnancy was supposed to make you glow and so happy but it's just made me weary, emotional and grumpy!
